Someone just posted this on Facebook. Pretty cool.

[Swede]

A lady just came up to me and said "Speak English, we are in San Diego." So I politely responded by asking her “how do I say 'San Diego' in English?"
The look of bewilderment on her face made it feel like a Friday.

34. I know, but I'm rusty.

Don't ask about reading, because I'd completely flop.

I tried Spanish way back, but the cassette tapes you'd practice from got too quick for me to understand.

21. San Diego is BLUE!

She isn't going to be saying that to many people without getting a royal smack down.

Over 60,000 attended the NO KINGS protest here and the immigrant/deportation issue was the main issue represented at the protest. I was there and I know.

I think the tRumpers in San Diego are realizing just how much they are hated and this is a new thing for them. They are terrible non-humans who see that their once RED city is and has been BLUE for at least 15 years. I was discussing this with someone at the protest. He said the same thing is gong on in areas of LA which used to be RED.

Their vocal, liberal hating majority is and has been the minority and they do not like it and are being even more asinine than ever, if that is even possible.

[calimary]

22. Perfect!

And I love how you described it, Swede.

“The look of bewilderment on her face made it feel like a Friday.”

Freakin’ FABULOUS!!!

23. I remember coming from Germany and speaking German

in Tacoma WA and once being told by some snotty lady at the supermarket to "speak English, you're in America now_ and mom looked at the lady and told her to go read the plaque on the Statue of Liberty and took me by the hand walked off before the lady could answer back

[markbark]

rendered in English would be either Saint James or Saint Jacob (depending on who you ask )
